Tommy Marcheschi x Petek – ‘BITCOIN WAR BONDS’ – Collectors Edition (2022) | (7/21)

After displaying his original at the Bitcoin Miami event, Tommy invited me to be the first collaborative artist to be given free reign to re-interpret his piece “BITCOIN WAR BONDS” – which has been such a joy and honour for me to work on. Compared to the Ltd ed of 256 of BITCOIN WAR BONDS, this is a slightly larger printed, Collectors Edition of 21 – that has been hand modified with 22ct and 23ct Gold leaf by myself, in collaboration with Tommy. Selected areas of the uniform, mask and medals as well as the cufflinks have been beautifully and delicately gold leafed with multiple layers – giving off a hand finished unique touch and real gold shine to this special collectors edition of WAR BONDS. By deliberately embelleshing as well as defacing tommy’s artwork, I have revealed a 2nd hidden message in the featured text – “HEREBY ALL PERSONS ARE REQUIRED TO LIVE FREE” Which quite simply blows me away, that it could be found in there!! As this is the true message that Bitcoin has always embodied, from the very beginning.
